LIKE SEINFELD, JIM HARBAUGH PUTS ON ENTERTAINING SHOW ... ABOUT NOTHING

He spoke Monday of watching as his father’s Western Kentucky team won the I-AA national championship and that it was the best game he’d ever seen on television. Asked what made it the best game, he replied, “Well, I just remember remarking to people that it was the best game I’d ever seen on television.”

He’s playing us, to be sure. And that’s fine.

Harbaugh is required to talk to the media, but his only concern is winning.

He’s an amicable Bill Belichick, another fantastic coach who allows zilch to the media yet does it with an unfathomable arrogance that borders on disdain.

Harbaugh isn’t a jerk. He’s simply a genius.

He masterminded a quarterback switch and navigated its potential nastiness, has masterfully managed games and motivated a group that was talented but without the proper direction.

And while that’s what he’s paid for and the fruits of which we’re here to watch, it sure is fun this week to witness him saying nothing.
